Pre-Game Talk: Chicago @ Toronto: Bedard comes to Town - October 16th at 7 pm

[Leafs87]

What does everyone have against Domi? I thought he’s looked pretty good

 

[ZEBROA]

I think Tenacious D should write "The greatest goal song in the world" for Leafs.

 

[ACC1224]

Bedard's coming home.

Game is here and he's from Vancouver.

 

[justashadowof]

It's going to be quite a night for a game early in the season against a bottom feeder.

 

[Nineteen67]

Been waiting for this game. I’m pulling for this kid and hope he’s the real deal.

 

[crump]

Bedard will be buzzing again tonight, these young phenoms love to have huge games in Toronto, but I would love to see Minten outshine his buddy tonight.

Woll is in. He had one bad outing in preseason (AHL team in front of him) but I’d like to see a rebound and have a dominating game from him.

The Toronto Maple Leafs are 12-11-5 on Mondays at home between October 15, 2018 and October 15, 2023.

 

[LeafalCrusader]

Reaves going to go after Perry tonight? Crowd would go nuts.

He's been ok. Some braindead moments defensively and inconsistent effort shift to shift. Feel like he's capable of being more of a sparkplug and would like to see that more. We have enough cerebral offensive minded guys, for a guy on a one year deal he needs to find other ways to separate himself and bring value.

 

[Rob Brown]

Hope Auston makes it 3 in a row.

 

[supermann_98]

Can't underestimate the Chicago team as they've been not bad so far, even tho they're largely a one line team. Gotta stay out of the box and keep Bedard to the outside.

Korchinski is another slick rookie I've been impressed with, very skilled. He looks to be their best D prospect who lines up with Bedard as their top fwd prospect.

 

[jiggy35]

Matthews with 4 to make it 10 in 3

 

[ACC1224]

Reaves going to go after Perry tonight? Crowd would go nuts.

Perry won't want any part of that.

 

[diehardleafsfan9878]

I would literally never watch a regular season game ever again. No exaggeration.

It would be the biggest flex on a team. Just score and have to hear, " Baby, baby, baby, ooo like baby, baby, baby ooo".

 

[wingman75]

Perry won't want any part of that.

He'll 'worm' his way out of it...

 

[Gilmour1996]

Reaves going to go after Perry tonight? Crowd would go nuts.

To get rid of Perry, just throw a $5 bill into the crowd and Perry will follow the money.

 

[Notsince67]

Time for marner to pot his 2nd. Hattie?

Chicago keeps looking to give the puck to Bedard for a shot. I'd rather Marner pick off those passes than get a hattie. There are plenty on the team that can score these days.

 

[al secord]

Game is here and he's from Vancouver.

Countdown until he inevitably demands a trade to his mom's favorite team.

Been waiting for this game. I’m pulling for this kid and hope he’s the real deal.

Woll?

 

[SprDaVE]

A couple terrible giveaways and not much generated offensively.

 

[Nineteen67]

Countdown until he inevitably demands a trade to his mom's favorite team.


Woll?

Would love to see Woll do well and become the number 1. The D and goaltending are still unanswered so filling that hole with a long term solution would really help.

Until then, I’m interested in watching Bedard. I got hooked on him in the WJHC last year.

 

[Suntouchable13]

I am here for history. Blackhawks are fairly awful, Matthews has a legit shot at another hat trick.

 

[ACC1224]

Countdown until he inevitably demands a trade to his mom's favorite team.


Woll?

Who's hIs moms favourite team?

 

[Apex Predator]

While Minten has been quiet I have been impressed how defensively sound he has been. That’s going to be a big reason if he sticks past 9 games. You can see that hockey IQ he knows where he needs to be defensively on the ice.

 

[The Podium]

Yes that’s surprising, pro drinking and driving isn’t obviously ridiculous.

What’s funny is that for all the complaints it is really not pro-drinking and driving. The song is about him recognizing his depression is causing self destructive behaviors in his “pursuit of happiness”.

In the grand scheme of the lyrics he’s actually recognzing that drinking and driving is wrong.

 

[Dekes For Days]

Will be nice to see Woll start.

And excited for a first look at Bedard.

Hope switching around the lines will help Domi do... something.

 

[TheGreenTBer]

It would be the biggest flex on a team. Just score and have to hear, " Baby, baby, baby, ooo like baby, baby, baby ooo".

I would literally rather have this
